kenya uchumi wao mkubwa wa mkopo. Miradi yote mikubwa inafadhiliwa na mchina siku sio nyingi tutasikia mchina anataka mashirika ya uma ya kenya!According to the notion of our good neighbours from the south, Tanzania are on their way to becoming the giant of East Africa. They claim their GDP is growing at the rate of 7% while that of Kenya is growing at 4.4% but there is no evidences or signs to support their argument, the gap keeps on increasing. In 2017 Kenya had 74bln while Tz had 52bln, that was a gap of 22bln. In 2018 Kenya is having a GDP of 86bln while Tz is at 56 bln, the gap is 30bln. So my question is if Tz economy is growing at afaster rate than that of Kenya, then why is the gap keeps on increasing? As you can see Kenya has reduced the gap between them and Ethiopia( 80bln Vs 74bln in 2017 and 87bln Vs 86bln in 2018).View attachment 975260
Waambie!That's the exchange rate GDP.
Tanzania's shilling dropped in value by 50% in 2015. Had it stayed at 1500/1USD, THE STORY WOULD DEFINATELY BE DIFFERENT.
However, the decline in our exchange rate doesn't mean that the price of goods and services has increased by 50%. It doesn't mean that rice is 50% more expensive than it as in early 2015. Matter of fact, the price of staple foods has dropped.
The import bill is stable and exports value is still the same (suprise,suprise).
That's why, our economies can be better compared using PPP. many UN Organizations use PPP GDP such as UNDP, UNIDO, ILO etc.. and if you use GDP by PPP Tanzania has a higher GDP than Kenya.
